I hope Queerty is getting a kickback from Apple for all the free product plugs. One must acknowledge Apple’s Ever-Klever industrial design, and also that before The-Steve died, his company was the most creative (as well as the most culturally sociopathic) shop on earth. BUT those of us who are not Baaaa-sheep, i.e. having the ability to actually see what’s behind the Magic Marketing Curtain, are watching with fascination as only the latter trait remains. Meanwhile – watch Apple making deeper and deeper deals with the devil called China. (Apple née Walmart). Oh and “Merry Druid Solstice.”

Its so shocking to find out the staff wants such shallow and superficial gifts. Quite frankly, I am blown away.

@Dixie Rect: Put the Grand Act away until after New Year’s. It’s as tired today as it’s always been.

@Dixie Rect: Honestly, I’m not. Welcome to the world of “Gay Culture”, where your status in life is dictated solely by the clothes and accessories you wear, the car you drive, and the gadgets you pull out at the coffeehouse. Something that I have been avoiding like the plague for 25 years.

@CaptainFabulous: Umm, what you just described isn’t necessarily a “gay culture” thing. The same things apply to straight people, especially straight men, maybe minus the coffeehouse thing.

One, Fuck You, Les Fabian Braithwaite, for wanting innocent animals to be tortured killed for your selfish shallow desire.
And two, Jake Myers, I suggest you take a look at Apple’s manufacturing facilities in China. If you can then still wish for their products, I feel sorry for your blackened soul.
